Outfielder Matt LaPorta, the key acquisition in last July's CC Sabathia trade with the Brewers, will join the Tribe at Comerica Park on Saturday, and he'll be joined by Luis Valbuena and Josh Barfield. All three players will be promoted from Triple-A Columbus.See, he can do things other than make 80's musical references and Auburn Football comments.
The trio will take the place of right-hander Joe Smith, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right rotator cuff, outfielder Trevor Crowe, who was optioned back to Columbus, and veteran infielder Tony Graffanino, who was designated for assignment.
Valbeuna was a Rattler in 2006.

I am still but yet a humble servant of Rattler Nation...
And props to you Chris for knowing the origins of the "WAR (insert here thing you're wishing positive karma and/or cheering on)" cry versus just a Jim Rome Show way to end a call or e-mail.
